Crystal Microdermabrasion Facial
The crystal microdermabrasion facial produces fantastic results, improving the condition of the skin so that it becomes firmer, smoother and more radiant. This treatment is a favourite among many celebrities who wish to achieve a naturally revitalised appearance.
This particular facial reconditions the skin without the use of harsh chemicals, gently yet efficiently exfoliating the skin. A wide range of common concerns can be improved through the use of this treatment, including: dull skin, oily skin, blocked pores, sun damage and minor pigmentation / blotchy skin.
During the treatment a handpiece sprays inert corundum crystals directly onto the face, which are distributed evenly over the complexion. When the crystals are removed from the skin’s surface through the vacuum action, they take with them surface dirt and debris, as well as dead skin cells. By not allowing these impurities to build up on the skin, a clear and glowing complexion can shine through. Crystal microdermabrasion facial can be used regularly alongside your usual skincare routine, enhancing its results for skin that remains in great condition. To fully rejuvenate the appearance of the skin, Ambra Aesthetics may suggest a course of up to 6 treatments performed at weekly intervals. Going forward, repeating this procedure on a monthly basis can help to ensure your complexion remains in tip-top condition.
At Ambra Aesthetics we make the crystal microdermabrasion facial bespoke to you. Depending on your concerns and treatment expectations we can add a collagen stimulating mask and / or skin lifting treatments. This can further rejuvenate the skin by helping to improve the quality of an ageing complexion by softening fine lines and tightening loose skin. Increasing collagen can also reduce the appearance of acne scarring, as the skin becomes smoother and fuller.

Frequently asked questions
Am I suitable for a crystal microdermabrasion facial?
The crystal microdermabrasion facial can be suitable for most skin types and tones, and may interest a variety of people. It can be the perfect pick-me-up for your complexion, or it can provide a suitable solution for tired looking skin. A comprehensive consultation at Ambra Aesthetics will recommend if this treatment is right for you.
Is the crystal microdermabrasion facial safe?
The results of your assessment at the consultation will determine if this treatment is in your best interests. It is deemed to be safe when administered by a trained professional, and if your practitioner thinks there is a chance your safety or well-being could be compromised, then the treatment will not be carried out.
Is the crystal microdermabrasion facial painful?
In general, this treatment is described as being relaxing. A vacuum is used when the crystals are being removed and you may feel a slight sucking sensation on your face, which should not be painful.
Are there any side effects or risks?
In some cases, this treatment has been known to cause sensitivity, mild swelling and facial redness. These effects will usually have gone within a few hours, but the skin may continue to feel dry and flaky for a few more days. It is important during this time to ensure you regularly apply a gentle moisturiser.
Is there any associated downtime?
Although a few minor side effects may be experienced, it is unlikely this will result in significant downtime. You should be able to continue with your day, once you have left the clinic and your ability to carry out your usual tasks should not be compromised.

“I went to see Dr McMillan for the first time about 1 year ago so she could revise some badly done under eye filler NOT DONE BY DR MCMILLAN, and she done the most fantastic job i had terrible anxiety from the previous injector and was very nervous, I done so much research but decided to go ahead with Dr McMillan as she was so reassuring and honest with it all.
